1. The main aim of the Human Genome Project was to determine the DNA Sequence of every human gene.
2. Variation in skin colour is an example of polygenic inheritance
This Human Karyotype is unusual because it has an extra chromosome at chromosome 21.
Klinefelters syndrome is shown in the second figure
Explanation:
1. The Human Genome Project's main goal was to sequence all the 30,000 genes and 3 million base pairs in their makeup for the early detection of diseases, gene therapy and molecular level studies.
2. Human skin colour is determined by the pigment melanin. The Dominant allele is responsible for dark colours as it produces more melanin. The melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) gene and Tyrosinase enzyme codes for the human skin colour. Polygenic inheritance are the traits which are controlled by one or more genes.

<u>The extra chro</u>mosome at the 21st chromosome pairs is called trisomy 21 or Down's Syndrome. It is due to the abnormal cell division/meiosis resulting in an extra X chromosome. This leads to thechanges the in physical development of the individual.
Klinefelter's Syndrome: There are 47 chromosomes and 2 or more X chromosomes in this syndrome of males. The resulting male suffering from Klinefelter would be sterile and have poorly developed testicles.
Answer:
Rock
Explanation:
Minerals are inorganic substances that occur naturally in nature and have a
a definite chemical composition and a crystalline structure while rocks may consists of one or many minerals together along with some organic remains due to which it may not look shiny and crystalline from outside.
Here, the two characteristics that enable the reader to identify the object given by grandmother to Emily as rock are –
a) Looks ugly on the outside (shows the presence of organic matter)
b) solid purple color with pretty crystals (crystalline structure inside)
This is baby stuff tbh. But it is A. You need water to live. Food to live. Air obviously and a shelter
During photosynthesis, solar/light energy from the sun is transformed into C6H12O6, or glucose (chemical energy). Photosynthesis is defined as the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods (glucose) from carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H20). Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen (O2) and glucose.
